High Resource Usage for YouTube

[CUTTaRUGG]

My phone keeps telling me that YouTube is using a lot of resources, but I use YouTube a lot. The only option it offers me is to put the app in deep sleep and of course, I don't want that cuz I use it all the time. Are there any other options to optimize around this?

Yes, any video intensive app is going to use a lot of resources.  The only way for it to not use resources would be not to use it.  If put into sleep or deep sleep, it will still work when you want to use it, but it will not use resources in the background, which would mean it would not auto-update or download videos in the background.  It will update when you use it, if there's an update available.

That's great to know. Thank you
